[Verse 1]
D A
All up and down this land,
A
He travelled,
Bm G
Looking for a home,
D Bm
He was all of thirty five,
Em7 A7
When he sat out alone,
D A
His soul was burning with a fire,
Bm G
A curse was on his name,
D A
He was the king,
D Dsus4 D
Of White Otter lake.
[Chorus]
A
Build me a castle she said,
G D
And make it three times over my head,
A
Glass in the windows and paint on the doors,
G D A G D D
Then my darling I will be yours.
[Verse 2]
D A
For many years as seasons changed,
Bm G
He struggled with his tasks,
D Bm
No one knows how this was done,
Em7 A7
No one stopped to ask,
D A
Higher ever, higher still,
Bm G
As if he began to rise,
D A
By the shore,
D Dsus4 D
Of White Otter lake.
[Chorus]
A
Build me a castle she said,
G D
And make it three times over my head,
A
Glass in the windows and paint on the doors,
G D A G D D
Then my darling I will be yours.
[Verse 3]
D A
Then one day, a message came,
Bm G
With words so clear and strong,
D Bm
A letter from his loved one read,
Em7 A7
I’ve waited far too long,
D A
You can have your castle fine,
Bm G
I never shall belong,
D A
To the king,
D
Of White Otter lake.

[Verse 4]
D A
Now the castle, stands in tribute,
Bm G
But it stands alone,
D Bm
The picket fence has fallen down,
Em7 A7
The weeds around have grown,
D
But the man whose heart,
A Bm G
And hands became a legend to us all,
D A
Is still the king,
Bm A G
Of White Otter lake.
D A
He is the king,
D Dsus4 D
Of White Otter lake.
[Chorus]
A
Build me a castle she said,
G D
And make it three times over my head,
A
Glass in the windows and paint on the doors,
G D
Then my darling I will be yours.
